The e-book version of Grimhilda! is making good progress. I've
actually put a preliminary version online at Kindle's site, so that I
can check out to see what it looks like on various devices. As a result,
my son and I spent a good deal of time last night sorting certain
elements out such as spacing, and changing a little design feature, and
altering the way the cast list showed up (somewhat randomly instead of
in neat columns) and checking out links and photos and so on.
And
we worked on the cover as well, though this hasn't been uploaded as
yet. This draft version isn't available for anyone else to view online
yet, though hopefully the finished product won't be far away.
The
Kindle site is very informative - sometimes overwhelmingly so - but in
general I found, even though I'm not a whizz kid on computer things
(except in certain specialized areas) that I understood what was
required, and have managed to do it. That's been very satisfying!
Initially the e-book will appear just on Kindle (which means of course that it can still be read in iPads and iPhones, plus other smartphones). This will be for the first three months; after that it will also appear on other platforms, such as Kobo.
